Thats why I recommended distortion pedal. If quality does not really matter a dedicated distortion will work, it will atleast produce a sound that is close enough. Hell, even Boss MT2 will do the trick.

if you scoop the amp enough it'd probably get you close enough for ****ing around.

evidently all your vox ac15 needs to sound like dimebag is a mids knob... so you can turn it down.

i like the 'crappy metal distortion pedal' idea (i think a metal zone in particular was suggested), that is one way of sounding like a raged out solid state amp (or buzzsaw).

if you really want dime's tone then i'd suggest a amp with a huge solid state power section. the amp needs to be high gain or you'll need to buy a pedal with a metal tone. you'd probably want a big cab with a couple speakers with lots of power handling.

that above description is just about the exact opposite of your ac15. so buy a metalzone
